I got the cable from ********az. It was OE. It wasn't the firewall grommet that I was talking about, it was the rubber seal part in the tranny. The firewall rubber came with the cable. I used a pick that I use to clean slag from tested welds to get it in. A little 3in1 oil and then just walked the rubber in around the hole's edge with that. Pulled on the cable to keep it in. Almost had to go get the wife to hold it, then found pulling a little worked just as well. I did find that the previous installer used zip-ties to hold it to 2 spots on the frame and one place going up the firewall. (They were marked CHINA, so I know it's been done at least once before) But all in all, it went pretty well. I've developed another problem, though. I'll post on it next. I've got a brake warning light coming on now.
